Bought the max allowed - $5k (really, it's a savings plan I have going for my son towards college expenses). I'll hold them for at least 15 months and then see what the rates are like then before cashing out, if I do...
Also, these can be bought at banks and credit unions, I've been told. I buy mine from TreasuryDirect. But I have my access card.
Good deal considering the lousy savings and CD rates out there...
